Quality and consistency is at the heart of everything we do, so you can be assured that you’re getting our very best, every time.

Exceptional Service

It’s not only our products that you can expect greatness from, we have the service levels to match. But you don’t need to take our word for it; when surveyed recently our customers said we are “flexible, responsive and timely”, “reliable, accurate and timely” and that “the team go out of their way to satisfy customer requirements”.

This is all down to our dedicated and expert team which works as one across the departments, sharing challenges and celebrating successes. We’re also investing more than ever in training and development empowering our colleagues to achieve their best every single day.

Certified B Corporation

As a Certified B Corporation, we’re proud to be part of a community of companies working together for change, and taking part in collective action to advocate for a shared goal of a global economy that benefits people and the planet. Our business practices are certified on environmental, social, and governance standards. 

We strive to be transparent and accountable for our impact, and adapt our practices to reflect evolving social and environmental issues, aligning with consumer demands and values.

Looking to the Future

We believe that actions speak louder than words and have significantly invested across the site over the past few years with the planet in mind.

We now have compressors which reduce thermal heat loss whilst they optimise energy output, solar panels to create a carbon neutral chill store and worked closely with our direct suppliers to identify their carbon footprint and how we can work together to improve it. Plus our incredible anaerobic digestor takes our waste materials and cleverly uses them to generate electricity to power 20-30% of our site, with green electricity powering the rest.

Dedication to our Community

We are a proud part of the Shaftesbury and Dorset community, working collaboratively to thrive together and support where we can, a role we take seriously as the largest employer in the town. We love sponsoring and being present at the renowned Gillingham & Shaftesbury Show as well as supporting local charities, school events and fundraising events throughout the year. Our community and people will always be important to us.

First Milk Family Values

We were thrilled to become part of the First Milk family in early 2024. Our aligned values for people, planet and animals make us the perfect fit and we look forward to continuing to make high quality dairy ingredients for many years to come.
